Hardy Plants 
Chrysanthemum 
(Hardy October Rose) 
See Color Illustration on Page 109. 
The development of the hardy Chrysanthe¬ 
mum has made it possible to have color, life 
and beauty in the garden when the other 
hardy plants are past. Frost in the fall does 
not greatly affect the flowering, and it fre¬ 
quently happens that a quantity of flowers 
can be cut late in November. The plants pre¬ 
fer well-drained, sunny position. The clumps 
grow old in the center, if each spring the 
plants are reset, discarding the old center 
portion, the stock will multiply readily and 
earlier and better flowers will result. Sepa¬ 
rate colors: Red, pink, white, and yellow. 
3 for 60c; $2.25 per doz., prepaid.

Beautiful hardy border plants producing in succession lovely spikes of pea-shaped flow¬ 
ers a foot long on stems 3 feet high; blooming from June to September. Very showy in the

and white there are some fine shades of pink and yellow. Extra large flower spikes. 3 for 
75c; $2.75 per doz., prepaid. 
Hardy Chrysanthemums

unusual appearance. Produces strong plants that 
throw up long, narrow spikes of rich light rosy pur¬ 
ple flowers, which last a long time. Blooms in July

attraction to butterflies. Use it as a background. 4 to 
5 feet. 3 for 55c; $2.00 per doz., prepaid. 
Hollyhocks 
These old-fashioned garden favorites again are in 
demand. They like deep, rich soil and a sunny loca¬ 
tion for best results but will thrive most anywhere. 
Plant them interspersed with shrubbery, as clumps 
in the lawn or in the mixed border, where their big 
handsome spikes of bloom produce bold and showy 
effects. They grow 5 to 6 feet tall and bloom in July.

ors, your choice, 3 for 50c; $1.75 per doz., prepaid.
